Hi Doug :)

I thought I had mailed you already about this, but apparently the
message was lost somewhere.  With the recent email problems I've had,
it may not be so strange.  Anyway, here's a copy of the message:

    This doesn't seem to work too well though.  Revision 1.12 of cleartmp
    correctly creates .ICE-unix and the other X11 socket dirs in /tmp in my
    mfs /tmp filesystem.  Newer revisions fail to do this, for two reasons:

        The cleartmp_prestart() function runs only when the script runs with
        $1 set to 'start', but the boot process calls the script with
        'faststart'.

        Even when I change cleartmp to recognise faststart, onestart, start
        and forcestart, the cleartmp_prestart() function runs before
        cleartmp_start(), creates the directories, only to have them deleted
        immediately by cleartmp_start() when run_rc_command is called.

    I'm not sure if there's a good way to modify cleartmp to do both things
    correctly, at least without something equally hackish like:

        run_rc_command "$@" || exit $?

        case $1 in
        start|faststart|forcestart|onestart)
            clear_tmp_prestart
            ;;
        esac

    or if it's better to make two cleartmp scripts :-/
